Forums Forums National News police to have fitness test annually

I know it does, but the papers must not have read it as the facts & figures don't correspond to the Winsor review.

i know, but at the end of the day its referenced, and its up to the reader to double check, like you did and couldnt be arsed doing before i posted it

Fifty years ago this country didn't have to worry about its bobbies being overweight and unfit...the courts were the real deterrent to its criminal classes. You only have to look at the massive increases in wanton violence and drunken and drugged behaviour of some of its feral youth to realize that. I fully realize that there is huge unemployment in this part of the country and further afield, but that doesn't excuse the sort of behaviour we read of every week in our local press, never mind the national press. The way things are going...there won't be room left for burglars in our prisons soon, due to them being overcrowded with lifers.
All these government initiatives are merely gimmicks and smoke screens to cover up their useless ineffective policies.

DO you think that T Windsor actually spent any time out with the Bobbies: you know things like dealing with drunks on a friday night, telling a family a loved one has died in a accident, attended a murder scene etc etc etc...I doubt it

You only need to take one look at him to recognize that he is a chinless wonder from a stuffed shirt background who would be found hiding under the nearest table, in a bank, leaving some old age pensioner to tackle a masked armed robber if one were taking place in his presence. That's the type I believe him to be.
